  1. LS3 This week :)

  2. studying for CPNE on a budget??

    Nervous1 replied to mamac0805's topic in Excelsior College

    Sheri is in Atlanta. I think its $600-700, but a flight for me from VA is extremely cheap, like $180. I'm not CPNE eligible yet, I'm testing for LS3 this week and have LS2 and Chronicity left to do,...

  3. studying for CPNE on a budget??

    Nervous1 replied to mamac0805's topic in Excelsior College

    Sherri Taylor's online workshop is $149 a month, I would plan on doing it for at least 1 month prior to the CPNE, although I (myself the needy one) will probably do it for 2-3 months unless I can get...

    Nervous1 replied to Hindsight20/20's topic in Online Distance Learning

  6. Straighterline courses

    Nervous1 replied to student81's topic in Online Distance Learning

    Check Straighterline's website for Partner Schools and they have a course matrix listed, that will give you an idea of how their courses fall at WGU. Last I checked the new ones are not listed but...

    Nervous1 replied to gatormedic24's topic in Excelsior College

  9. chronicity- study tips please!

    Nervous1 replied to jerez01's topic in Excelsior College

    Just took this one and failed it with a D. I used the practice exams exclusively. They are a GREAT BIG HELP but are not enough. You need a little more. Put a little extra time into Sensory...

  11. Chronicity Fail :(

    Nervous1 posted a topic in Excelsior College

    I failed it yesterday with a D - Culture got me! I got 92% in functional assessment and midrange on the rest, but Culture was extremely tow. As soon as it was over, I went to my car and quickly...

  12. Chronicity this morning

    Nervous1 posted a topic in Excelsior College

    Today is the day for the test I dread. 2 weeks ago I was dreading Repro but asking for prayers and saying that little prayer in the bathroom mirror at Pearsonvue helped me get a B on the test that I...

  13. For All Current Excelsior Students

    Nervous1 posted a topic in Excelsior College

    I thought I would start a post for those of us working our way thru the program. I feel like I have hit a brick wall with studying. I was on a roll for the first 9 months of this year getting ready...

  14. Any EC grads w/AAS do RN-BSN online?

    Nervous1 replied to BeachieRN84's topic in Excelsior College

    I remember reading about your progress for the past few months, so glad you made it thru! I had asked for a courtesy eval a few weeks back and told them I wanted to start the BSN program immediately...

  15. Any EC grads w/AAS do RN-BSN online?

    Nervous1 replied to BeachieRN84's topic in Excelsior College

    Since you just finished EC, get them to do a courtesy eval for the BSN program. They already have your transcripts and they told me once I graduate I can get a eval done and not have to pay the 75...

  16. Please help I need advice

    Nervous1 replied to Gem0607's topic in North Carolina Nursing

    I don't have any advice but it may help if everyone knew what part of NC you are close to? I know the job market in NC is a little different statewide, but I heard the Triad area is good, note sure...

  17. LPN to RN bridge through Excelsior

    Nervous1 replied to Nurse2beMN's topic in Excelsior College

    I agree with Lunah that 6 months is a little unrealistic but if I pass my last exam on Dec 10 I will be at the 5 month mark for all of the nursing exams, BUT I started in January getting all of the...

  19. I failed LS2!!!

    Move on to LS3 and when you pass it in 2 weeks call EC and ask them to waive the waiting period for the retake. Don't lose momentum, just keep

    Nervous1 replied to wintersantanaRN's topic in Excelsior College

    Chronicity is scheduled for the 23rd. Life span 2 is Dec 10 and Life Span 3 Dec 15 (bad scheduling options at PV in December it seems, its all I could get). I've paid for all 3 and its my last 3. I...
